Singer Liam Gallagher has said he is facing an “awkward” appearance on The Late Late Show in the US after calling presenter James Corden a “knob head”.

The former Oasis star told how he will now be appearing on the chat show but that he still refuses to join in Corden’s famous Carpool Karaoke segment.

According to GQ magazine, when asked in August if he would appear on the show, Gallagher said: “No thank you very much. No f****** chance, mate. With that fat bloke from Kevin & Perry?”

His partner, Debbie Gwyther, was reported as telling him at the time: “It’s called Gavin & Stacey and you’ve never watched it”, to which Gallagher replied: “I don’t need to watch it to know I won’t like it. James Corden is a knob head.”

Corden later made an ironic response to the slating, telling The Daily Beast: “God, I just don’t know how we’ll carry on. I don’t how we’ll even think of carrying on. Yeah, God, what will we do?”

Speaking on the BBC Radio 2 breakfast show as his debut solo album As You Were hit shelves, Gallagher, 45, said he would be travelling to the US within hours for a string of events and performances.

“We’ve got to go and do James Corden’s show, that’ll be awkward,” he told presenter Chris Evans.
